\VOODWORIHNG-MACHINE.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that we, CLINTON G. WILDER- SON and Emmi: Harmon), ofLectonia, Columbiuna county, Ohio, have invented a new and usefulImprovements in Woodworking- Machines, of which the following is a full,clear, and exact description, reference being had to the accompanyingdrawings, part of this specification, in which-- Figure 1 is a frontview of one form of our improved machine. Fig. :2 is an end viewthereof. Fig. 3 is a plan view. Fig. 4 is a side elevation of a coverfor the saw.

This invention relates to woodworking machines, and is designed toprovide a machine on which various kinds of work can be done on the samethe machine.

A more particular object is, to provide a machine which is particularlyadapted for small shops which do not have sufficient use for varioustypes-of machines to permit the installation of a machine tool forperforming each of the difi'erent operations, such as planing, sawing,boring, rounding the edges of the poles, or shaping the edges of moldingor similar articles.

The precise nature of our invention will be best understood by referenceto the accon'ipanying drawings, which will now be described, it beingpremised, however, that piece without changing various changes may bemade in the details of construction without departing from the spiritand scope of our invention, as defined in the appended claims.

In, the drawings, the numeral 2 designates the frame of 'a jointer; $3the shaft and 4 a driving pulley rigidly connected to the shaft andadapted to receive the usual driving belt.

5 is the jointer table, which is arranged to be ClGE'fiLGCl and loweredby the adjusting screws (3.

Connected to the central portion of the shaft 3, is a jointer cutter 7;and connected to one end of the shaft is a chuck 8, arranged toreceiveany one of various tools, such as a bit 9. 10 is a saw mounted onthe other end of the shaft, as clearly illustrated in Figs. 1, 2 and 3.

Connected to one side of the machine is a bracket 11, which isprovidedwith a guide for receiving a frame 12 on which is slidably mounted atable 13 for'supporting the Specification of Letters Patent.

material to be bored by the bit 9. 14 is a bracket secured to the otherside of the main frame and having guides 15 for receiving the yoke 16,as illustrated in Figs. 1 and 2. Extending outwardly from the lower v toclamp the yoke 16 in its adjusted'position in said bracket. Mounted onthe upper portion of this yoke 16, is a saw table 21 to which isconnected a bracket 22, arranged to adjustably receive the guide 23 forthe material to be sawed.

24 is an adjustable guide above the table 5 for guiding the work for thejointer.

The device shown in Figs. 1 to 3 is arranged to permit a board to be runover the jointer edgewise to square up an edge with relation to thebroad faces thereof, after which it is passed to the saw table, and theproper width of strip cut therefrom. The strip is then run over theknife of the ointer to surface the rough edge left by the saw. Byadjusting the guide 23, strips of various sizes can be cut from theboard. By this arrangement, we are able to square up the board fromwhich the strip is to be out, then cut the strip the proper width andthen surface the rough face and turn out a finished article on the samemachine.

21 designates orifices in the saw table 21 which are arranged to receivepins 25 extending downwardly from the lower face of a saw guard 26. Thisguard may be placed above the'saw to completely cover it when the saw isnot in use, and thereby prevent any one from being injured by the saw.

It will readily be understood by those familiar with the art thatvarious tools other than a saw can be secured to the shaft 3, and thatyokes of different shapes than the one shown can readily be secured tothe side of r the frame of the machine, and to which variouswork-holding devices may be secured to meet the various requirements ofthe work to be done.

The advantages of our invention result from the provision of a machinewhich is adapted to perform various operations on changed to enable itto perform further op-;

erations on the piece.

We claim:

1. A Wood-Working machine, having a main frame, a shaft rotatablyjoilrnaled in said frame, vertical guides on the side of the frame belowthe shaft, a yoke slidably mounted in said guides and having armsextending upwardly on each side of the shaft, and a work guide abovesaid' shaft connected to the yoke arms; substantially as described. I

z. A Wood-Working machine, having a main frame, a shaft rotatablyjournaled in said frame, vertical guides on the side of'the frame belowtheyshaft, a yoke slidably mounted in said guides and having armsextending upwardly on each side of the shaft, and a work guide abovesaid shaft connected to the yoke arms, together with newer a screwdevice for adjusting the yoke, and means for securing the yoke 111 itsadJusted position; substantially as described.

, being a slot in said yoke below the arms, and

a securing screw extending throiigh said slot and having a screwthreaded engagement with a guide member; substantially as described. I iP in testimony whereof, We have hereunto set our hands. v CLINTON G.WZLDERSQN. ELMER HQAPJRGLD.
